Unwind, a new Fiber Arts Retreat
Nancy’s Knit Knacks is holding their first annual retreat in Blowing Rock, NC. It is being held April 29 – May 2, 2011 in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. The retreat will accommodate a cozy group of 60 attendees coming to relax, knit and learn. There will be workshops, evening programs and lots of time to socialize and to explore the area. I just love the name that Nancy picked out for this retreat: We all deserve to Unwind now and then, and this looks like a perfect event to do just that. Registration closes March 25th or as soon as all spots are filled.
Details and Registration are at www.unwindgetaway.com
I’ve spent much time in the past enjoying the mountains of NC, and Blowing Rock holds fond memories. Alas, I myself will not be able to attend. But I have sent a book of 12 patterns for each retreat attendee. So I will be there with you in spirit and sponsorship!
You can see a list of all Unwind Sponsors here. It looks like a lot of great stuff has already come for door prizes and to fill the goody bags. Even if you can’t go to this year’s retreat, it’s ok to dream and drool, right?
p.s. A shout-out to my fellow bloggers in this month’s challenge.
It’s a pity this only happens in North Carolina! I will never be able to join such a lovely knitting retreat. I have been knitting for many years and to have nature as the source of inspiration for my designs has always been my first love! I can only imagine how many magnificent designs you can knit while you are there. I can’t wait ‘til you post the photos here!
Not sure I’d enjoy the knitting, but it would be worth the trip just to relax and enjoy the views around Blowing Rock.
